This website has a good crime link: You can click on the balloons, and it will tell you what the crime was.

SpotCrime is an excellent website and it's pretty much nation wide.

Here's the DC site: Washington Crime Map - Showing Crime in Washington, DC - Crime Statistics - Crime Alerts - Crime Stops Here

Yeah, very surprising (but it kinda makes sense that some of the densest areas are the most dangerous, because they provide the most possible victims). I guess I'll be more careful in East Downtown (though I think that cluster is skewed a bit by the inclusion of the convention center area, which has always instinctively creeped me out). I know this is an old post, but the link is still updated and helpful, so thanks.

Click the state you want, then the county from the list, then the area. At the top right under the blog heading you pick view area info. If there is more than one zip code you choose at the top of the resulting listing.

Is there no DC zip code where crime rates are below double the national average?
